ANNOUNCER:
NINETY-SEVEN PERCENT OF AMERICANS LOOK ONLINE FOR LOCAL PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, BUT DESPITE SUCH STRONG STATISTICS, 53 PERCENT OF SMALL BUSINESSES IN SOUTH CAROLINA DO NOT HAVE A WEBSITE.
SCOTT LEVITAN, DIRECTOR OF SMALL BUSINESS ENGAGEMENT AT GOOGLE THINKS TOO MANY SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS MISTAKENLY BELIEVE THAT GETTING ONLINE IS TOO COMPLEX OR COSTLY.
FOR THIS REASON, GOOGLE HAS CREATED A PROGRAM CALLED SOUTH CAROLINA, GET YOUR BUSINESS ONLINE.
SCOTT LEVITAN:
“Well, pretty much everyone looks online for products and services. That’s why it is critical for any business to get online and getting online provides small business the opportunity to find new customers, increase sales and grow. That’s why we’re offering a free Intuit website, a customized domain name and hosting for one year.”
ANNOUNCER:
BUSINESS OWNERS CAN SIGN UP FOR THE PROGRAM AT AN EVENT AT MEMMINGER AUDITORIUM IN CHARLESTON ON FEBRUARY 21 OR ANYTIME ON THE WEB AT SOUTH CAROLINA GET ONLINE.COM. I’M JOHN DRYDEN.
